Both SIM cards must be inserted in the slots placed on the back side of the phone, with the golden contacts facing downwards. See the diagram below:

the metal harness toward the “Unlock” position, then open the
harness and let the memory card slide in, with the golden contacts facing downwards. Then close and lock the harness.
